Abstract
This article considers the issue of using means of mechanization of the most labor-intensive processes of intensive horticulture in Belarus. It has been established that the level of mechanization of the basic technology of cultivating an apple orchard is only 12,5 %, and requires financial resources – 6163 rubles/ha. A set of machines developed by RUE “SPC NAS of Belarus for agricultural mechanization” consists of an ASU-6 unit for harvesting fruits and pruning trees, a KUV-1,8 complex for swathing and chopping cut branches of fruit trees and a technological line LSP-4 for sorting and packing apples allows you to mechanize these processes. The use of the proposed train of machines in a promising garden cultivation technology allows for annual cost savings on the technological map in the amount of 1018,5 rubles/ha, a reduction in labor costs by 278,5 man-hours/ha, and the level of mechanization of garden cultivation – 50,1 %.
